Decision details

Preparation of Council Size submission.

The Executive RESOLVED to:

i.      Approve the setting up of an Informal Working Group of councillors, comprising two representatives from the three larger political Groups and one each from the two smaller political Groups, nominated by Group Leaders, together with one Independent Councillor.

ii.    Ask the Informal Working Group to bring forward recommendations (on the LGBCE ‘Size Submission’ document relating to the size of the Council from 2023) for consideration at the Executive’s February 2021 meeting at the latest so that the Executive can, in turn, make recommendations for the Full Council to debate at its February 2021 meeting.  

Reason: to facilitate a cross-party approach to the Boundary Review submission and to ensure the deadline of the end of February 2021 is met.
